Mailbag & Articles

• CS Nation have updated their mailbag feature with a new mailbag that focuses on 'What is your favorite strategy?'.

• 3D Action Planet have also added a new editorial about the treatment of newbies in online gaming. This is a very relevant article to CS, as we seem to have plenty of 'newbie bashing' in the community:

  "On the other hand, I can see why someone would want to bash a newbie. Newbies have a tendency to ask very dumb questions. A question like "How do I shoot?" often gets replies of "RTFM!" or the commonly used "Newb!" This, however, serves no purpose. Not only does the newbie still not know how to shoot, he/she also now feel bad about himself, and will not make a very effective player."

  Some people forget we are all newbies to begin with.
